Integrated ADA Pass-Through Garage Doors
At Arrington Vineyards, three of the Titan® Aluminum & Glass Overhead Sectional Doors were designed with integrated ADA-compliant pass-through doors, allowing guests, staff, and vendors to enter and exit the pavilion without needing to open the full overhead door system.
This solution improves accessibility, maintains climate control, and helps support smooth event operations while preserving the clean architectural appearance and open-air flexibility of the glass garage door system.
Unlike traditional overhead doors, ArmRLite’s welded aluminum pass-through garage doors combine large opening capability with convenient pedestrian access, making them ideal for high-traffic hospitality and commercial environments.

- Helps maintain indoor temperature and weather protection
- Improves operational efficiency during events and daily use
- Provides ADA-compliant accessibility for guests and staff
